I'm not interested in seeing the board moderated.

Many in favor have pointed to MileageGod as being the reason they now want moderators. Wasn't this guy around here for just a few days and then gone? And to my knowledge this was the first incident of its type in two years. I should hardly think this one jerk's brief appearance on the board should require FT to now be forever changed.

Most of the rest of what I've seen, and maybe I've missed the other stuff, has either been a healthy, if spirited, exchange of ideas or individuals' desires to simply quash ideas/opinions they don't like or ideas/opinions from people they don't like. But doesn't that all go with being part of a community?

Sometimes there are posters who engage in name calling, but it seems to me other people readily and quickly step in and scold the poster. Would a moderator do something different?
